The Roosters<\/a> survived a major blow to come back victorious against the Eels, as star enforcer Jared Waerea-Hargreaves<\/a> was given marching orders\ufeff after an ugly high shot on Parramatta<\/a>'s Shaun Lane.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred just seconds after a stellar attacking set from the visitors before a Mitchell Moses bomb bounced back in the direction of Parramatta.<\/p>\n

Waerea-Hargreaves attempted to make a tackle on Lane 30 metres out from his line, but instead found himself nailing the second-rower on the chin.<\/p>\n

"He's wiped him out with a high one," Dan Ginnane said on Fox League.<\/p>\n

Referee Chris Butler awarded a penalty to Parramatta as Waerea-Hargreaves\ufeff returned to the line, however, Parramatta opted to wait in an attempt to get the Bunker involved.<\/p>\n

"Are Parramatta waiting for the Bunker to get involved here? Yes, they seem to be waiting for the Bunker," Ginnane said.<\/p>\n

"James Tedesco wants nothing to do with this.<\/p>\n

"Will a penalty be sufficient (enough) or will we see a sin-bin?"\ufeff<\/p>\n

Eventually the Bunker got involved with Butler calling Roosters skipper Tedesco to the middle of the field alongside Waerea-Hargreaves.<\/p>\n

"There was direct force and no attempt to lower your height at all," Butler told Tedesco and Waerea-Hargreaves.<\/p>\n

League legend Greg Alexander agreed with the Bunker's decision. \ufeff<\/p>\n

"In a play like that you take the risk… and that's exactly what [Lane] did," he said on Fox League.<\/p>\n

Waerea-Hargreaves was not the first sent from the field in the game, with Eels star Kelma Tuilagi binned for an ugly tackle on Lindsay Collins.<\/p>\n

The backrower immediately realised his fate after he flipped Collins upside down\ufeff.<\/p>\n

Butler did not hesitate with the decision, with Tuilagi ordered off the field.<\/p>\n

The incident set up Junior Pauga to score the first points of the night, crossing in the corner for the tri-colours.<\/p>\n

"It could've been worse than it actually looked," Mal Meninga said of Tuilagi's tackle at halftime on Fox League<\/p>\n

"He will be out for a long time," Cooper Cronk replied.\ufeff<\/p>\n

Parramatta returned from the break with a new found energy, crossing the line twice in the opening four minutes of the second half. <\/p>\n

The Roosters lost veteran centre Michael Jennings to a hamstring injury before Daniel Tupou powered over the line to score his second.<\/p>\n

"This is an epidemic (hamstring injuries). I can never remember it happening this often," Alexander called of Jennings's injury on Fox League.<\/p>\n

Angus Crichton ended the Eels comeback hopes as he crossed the line with five minutes left on the clock, bringing the score to 28-18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
